Withdrawal From a Course

Students may withdraw from a course after the Drop/Add period only for
reasons of health. However, students will not be allowed to add a
course after the official Drop/Add period has ended. If a student
withdraws from a course after the Drop/Add period, a grade of "W" will
be assigned on the permanent record. If a student does not attend class
at all during the first two weeks of the academic term without prior
agreement with the instructor, the student will be withdrawn by the
instructor, with a grade of "W."

Students who officially withdraw from a course on or immediately
after mid-term grades are due will receive a grade of "W." It is the
student's responsibility to submit a course withdrawal form, signed by
his or her advisor and by the instructor, to the Registrar's Office by
the deadline for withdrawing from courses. If a student withdraws from
a course after the deadline, the grade of "WP" or "WF" will be recorded
by the instructor.

If a student exceeds the number of absences permitted in a course
before the deadline for withdrawing from courses, the instructor will
notify the Registrar's Office that the student is to be withdrawn from
the course and given a grade of "W." This grade will count toward the
maximum number of withdrawals the student is allowed. If a student
exceeds the number of absences allowed in a course after the deadline
for withdrawing from the course, he or she will be withdrawn from the
course by the professor and a grade of "F" will be recorded.

There is no refund of tuition for full-time or part-time resident
students who withdraw from one or more courses anytime during the
semester.
